| | | Time over the quarter mile
Can anyone give me an idea on how quick a standard rocket covers the quarter mile?
Triumph dont include this in their tech specs.
Regards, Cappy. |

I've got an 05 black rocket, with 3/2 staintune mufflers (no cat box). Summer w/screen,Floorboars,Packrack,factory alarm system, with some custom made saddle bags.
I'm more than happy with the sheer grunt it puts out and it never ceases to amase me every time I give it a big fistfull.guess I need to run it over the quarter for my own satisfaction,
I'm fairly slack when it comes to using the forums etc I like to brouse a bit and catch up on the latest goss but prefer to mess about in my shed. (naturally the bike takes up most of my spare time)
Best Regards, Cappy |

| | | 7.4s in the 1/8th isn't too bad but I expected quicker. I am guessing weight is the anchor for these bikes. I ran 7.4s on my 88hp 600cc sportbike. 6.90s @ 103 on my Bandit. |
